Easter with my soccer family
Happy Easter Karma Sisters. Its my favorite holiday. The promise of spring, tulips, golf and chocolate...lots of chocolate. It would not be a holiday without a turkey and a large dinner. This year we are in Kelowna for a soccer tournament, and we broke bread with 70 "family" members. This is different definition of family, we don't share any blood lines or any similar heritage. The only thing we have in common is girls who play soccer and were born in 1999. Over the past three years we have become a large family. Children run between rooms in the hotel, vehicles fill up with players from the field, we fed kids who are within an arms distance, we laugh, we disagree, and we always forgive. Family to me is about love, tradition, and laughter this group defines it all. Thank you to my soccer family, like any blood line, I didn't get to chose you, my soccer daughter did, but know I feel blessed to have you in my life. It amazes where we can find a family.
